One Actor for each Movie Catergory

Ever had people ask you "If You could be on an Island with one person for the rest of your life , who would it be." A pretty frequent question asked in past time. So I got a little creative and came up with a list of one actor for each movie category to see for the rest of my life.

Action: Christian Bale- Say anything you want about the man, he knows how to keep your attention in a movie without overacting a scene. Best roles= The Prestige, Batman Begins, The Dark Knight.

Drama: Tom Hanks- What more can I say about the guy than he's probably the greatest actor of our generation. He did almost win an academy award for talking to a volleyball. Best Roles= Forrest Gump, Road to Perdition, Saving Private Ryan.

Gangster: Robert de Niro- This was a hard decision for me because I also like Al Pacino to. But, I made my decision and I am sticking to it. "You talkin' to me." The way he stays cool about everything, and yet you still are deathly afraid of him. Best Roles= Goodfellas, Casino, Heat.

War: Mel Gibson- The dude may be an anti semetical a**hole, but he is all talent and effort. He was amazing in his selected war movie roles. He is so passionate in his movie roles. Best Roles= Braveheart, The Patriot, Lethal Weapon.

Comedy: Paul Rudd- Everytime I see Rudd in movies I think of him as Brian Fantana on the air in Anchorman. His very very dry sense of humor makes him hysterical to watch on screen. Best Roles= Anchorman, Role Models, Forgetting Sarah Marshall.

Horror: Jamie Lee Curtis- I love the movie Halloween because she made part of that movie with her screams. She makes the movie more violent and intense just by screaming. Best Roles= Halloween, True Lies, A Fish Called Wanda.

I would have Romance, but not a huge fan of that genre. Sorry.

    Gangster= Denzel Washington.

    And suspense/Thriller: Clive Owen.
